Who says sleep is not spiritual practice?

Chapter 123 Going to the Wu Pavilion, the old man who has survived from the previous dynasty

by the campfire.

The dry wood burned and made a crackling sound.

Jiang Qingyu sat quietly on a rock, with dozens of corpses lying around her side, each of them was killed by one blow, and the death was not painful.

"I say! I'll tell you everything!"

"I beg you!"

"Don't waste my place!"

"what--"

……

Behind him, there were continuous wailing sounds from inside the tent.

The shouts were shrill and creepy.

It was "Black Impermanence" Xie Wen who was interrogating several captives.

In the past less than an hour, Jiang Qingyu witnessed with her own eyes that each and every one of the captives went from being stubborn at the beginning and refusing to say anything, to begging for mercy and ambiguous words in the middle, and finally to answering every question, and even taking the initiative to talk A secret, just for the sake of pleasure...

It's pathetic and ridiculous.

Pitiful.

It was because Heiwuchang's interrogation methods were too cruel. Sometimes the other party had already confessed, but he would not stop the torture. It seemed that he simply regarded torture as a kind of pleasure.

During this period of time, even through the tent, Jiang Qingyu could already hear that the other party used at least thirty different instruments of torture!
You don't need to look to know that those people must be out of shape by now.

As for the ridiculous.

But it was because among the five people, the one who endured the longest torture was not those Bright Moon Realm, but the only Fate Star Realm, Tuoba Lan.

The cultivation base is the lowest, but the will is the strongest.

I have to say, very ironic.

After a while.

Heiwuchang ended the interrogation and walked out of the tent after washing his hands.

"Son."

He bowed his head slightly:
"It's almost clear."

"This group of people all come from a faction called 'Zouwu Pavilion', and the high-ranking members of this faction are all remnants of the previous dynasty!"

The remnants of the previous dynasty?

Since Jiang Qingyu had already heard this secret from the screams just now, Jiang Qingyu didn't show much surprise:

"It was so."

Walking and Wu together form the word "Yue".

The former emperor's surname was Wu, and his country name was Yue!
After the last emperor of Yue State was stabbed to death on the dragon chair with a jade hairpin by the then empress Murong, the Jing family succeeded in stealing the country with the support of many families and sects, and immediately ordered the massacre of the former emperor The royal family and its loyalists!
The search and killing went on for a whole year, and tens of thousands of people died!

However, there are always fish that slip through the net.

When the Yue Kingdom fell, the country was still strong. The emperor at that time not only worked hard and was diligent in political affairs, he was also a legendary figure of the fourth-rank congenital star-picking realm, and even...

Rumor has it that at that time, he had faintly touched the Dragon Raising Realm!

Therefore, there are countless people loyal to the Yue royal family.

In addition, Jing's lineage is not in the right position and is unpopular, so...

Some people left the capital with the protection of a group of princes and princesses, and found a paradise to hide. Some people went to the Central Plains to hide their identities, and cultivated forces loyal to the previous dynasty.

This group of people has been dormant for hundreds of years, waiting for the opportunity to restore the country.

Over the past hundred years, occasionally a few remnants of the previous dynasty would cause disturbances in Chu State, either assassinating a certain prince surnamed Jing, or slaughtering a group of eagles and dogs, and hanging their heads on the top of the capital... …

Use this to warn the world that the country of Yue will not perish!
"The country has been subjugated for hundreds of years, and they still refuse to give up?"

Jiang Qingyu frowned slightly:
"The group of loyal and loyal veterans of the Yue Kingdom have already died, right? Unexpectedly, their descendants also have such a strong sense of belonging to the Yue Kingdom, and they only want to restore the former dynasty."

For hundreds of years, at least five or six generations have gone through. None of the remnants of the previous dynasty has ever seen the history of Yue State with their own eyes. They can only know that there was such a dynasty from the word of mouth of the elders.

I haven't personally experienced the glory of the previous dynasty, but I can never forget the restoration...

I don't know if this group of people are really stupid and loyal, or they have other plans.

"Son."

On the side, Heiwuchang had a serious face, and said a chilling news:

"In the Zouwu Pavilion, there is an old man who survived from the previous dynasty!"

Jiang Qingyu was quite surprised.

He hadn't heard the news just now.

Most likely it was confessed by some unlucky ghost who had his tongue pulled out.

It has been hundreds of years since the former dynasty fell.

To be able to live from that time to the present, one must have at least the innate fourth-grade star-picking realm in terms of martial arts cultivation!
"That's reasonable."

"Only the old ministers of the Yue Kingdom who survived the previous dynasty would wholeheartedly think about fighting against Chu and returning to Yue."

Jiang Qingyu's eyes were slightly angry:
"It's not surprising that among the remnants of the previous dynasty, there is a star-picking realm. After all, this group of people has been dancing for so long. If they were only supported by the Sunshine Realm, they would have been driven to extinction by the Jing clan."

"But now, they have stretched their hands into Beidi, and even tried to collude with the Di people and invade the northern border..."

"In order to restore the country, do you hesitate to attract foreigners into the Central Plains?"

"It's just maddening!"

Jiang Qingyu didn't care that the remnants of the previous dynasty were against the Jing clan, but when it came to the northern border, he couldn't just sit idly by!

After all, once their plan succeeds and they move south, in order to successfully capture the northern territory, that old man will probably go to the Palace of Rejecting the North in person to deal with Jiang Qiushui, the King of Rejecting the North that Emperor Jing Hong relies on the most!
"They are indeed a bunch of lunatics!"

Heiwuchang also had a gloomy face:
"According to Tuoba Lie's account, that old man's time is running out, so he went crazy before he died."

"Not only Beidi, Nanman, Dongyi, and Xirong all have their arrangements!"

"Look at this posture, they are preparing to fight to the death, trying to see if they can overthrow the rule of the Jing clan!"

Jiang Qingyu suddenly felt a headache:
"It was an ordinary family dispute, but I didn't expect to get into such a big trouble."

Give him a few months, and the "Dream Sutra" has been promoted to the next stage, but he is not afraid of the former elder who is in the star-catching state.

But he didn't have a good impression of Jing's lineage, and he didn't want to fight to the death with the remnants of the previous dynasty for the sake of others.

He wished that Jing's lineage would fight with the remnants of the previous dynasty, and both would suffer!

"Apart from the few people here, who else came to Beidi from the Wu Pavilion?"

"It's not like Tuoba Lie is the leader of this operation?"

Jiang Qingyu was not worried that the old man would also come to Beidi.

After all, for those kinds of people, a mere Beidi is not worth visiting in person.

What's more, that person is now shouldering the mission of opposing Chu and restoring Yue, and is the object of fanatical admiration for all the remnants of the previous dynasty. If something happens to him, the restoration plan of the Yue Kingdom will be tantamount to a complete failure.

Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, this person will never appear in the sight of others!

"Tuoba Lie is the commander of this operation."

Hei Wuchang confided the information he had interrogated:
"Tuoba Lie married a woman with the blood of the Yue Kingdom's royal family. That woman has a high status in the Zouwu Pavilion and is known as Princess Lingyue!"

"If it weren't for this, the remnants of the previous dynasty would not have chosen him to be the king of Beidi!"

It is also thanks to Princess Lingyue's personal training that Tuoba Lan regards the Yue Kingdom as her faith, so she has a firm will and has survived the torture for so long.

pity……

No matter how hard the bones are in Heiwuchang's hands, they will soften.

Jiang Qingyu asked:
"Isn't there a Sunshine Realm involved in this matter?"

"Just relying on Tuoba Lie and others doesn't seem to be enough to seize power?"

After all, Beidi currently has at least two Yaori realms, Tuobayan and Bals.

To seize power, there are only two options.

Either work with it or kill it.

Heiwuchang's tone sank:
"Young master, you must not have thought of it."

"Tuobayan, as early as 60 years ago, he was bought by Zouwu Pavilion!"
